IMG Journal Article Selected as Cover for Advanced Engineering Materials December Issue

Submitted by Troy Tharpe on Tue, 12/21/2021 - 1:07pm

The recent article titled, "Resolving Mechanical Properties and Morphology Evolution of Free-Standing Ferroelectric Hf0.5Zr0.5O2" targets the accurate extraction of Young's modulus, built-in stress, and crystal morphology change upon release of hafnia-zirconia thin films. Hafnia-zirconia is uniquely positioned to revolutionize nanoscale transducers, allowing for nanomechanical sensors and actuators to be monolithically integrated within CMOS.

Aneesh Koka's Research Work with Dr. Henry Sodano Published in Nature Communications

Submitted by Christopher Bowland on Thu, 11/07/2013 - 1:47pm

Research article by Aneesh Koka and Dr. Henry A. Sodano entitled “High-sensitivity accelerometer composed of ultra-long vertically aligned barium titanate nanowire arrays” has been published recently in Nature Communications. A brief summary of the article is presented as follows

"Aligned piezoelectric nanowires show great promise for sensing applications, however it is yet to be demonstrated that they can be used as an accurate dynamic sensor. Here, Koka and Sodano demonstrate the first synthesis of vertically aligned arrays of ultra-long (~45 µm) barium titanate nanowires and their application as a nano electromechanical system accelerometer that offers high sensitivity"
